FCPA Compliance Report: Vince Walden on AI, Digital Assistants, and ROI at Compliance Week 2026

In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Vince Walden, President of konaAI, to discuss his two panels at Compliance Week 2026 and the state of AI in compliance.

For the panel on AI and the compliance workforce, Vince argues jobs are generally safe because AI is best deployed as “digital assistants” (not digital employees) that handle repetitive tasks like data pulls and third-party due diligence, while keeping the “expert in the loop,” and he plans to show real use-case examples. For the ROI panel, Vince and co-panelists will discuss measuring impact through productivity gains, cost savings, faster turnaround for due diligence, and expanded compliance capabilities such as culture assessments, training, and transaction monitoring. Vince also links AI analytics to detecting fraud, waste, and abuse, citing a potential $35 million vendor abuse recovery, and explains why Compliance Week remains a top conference for regulator and peer benchmarking.

Key highlights:

  • AI Workforce
  • Digital Assistants in Action
  • Measuring Compliance ROI
  • Fraud Waste Abuse
  • Affordable Analytics Wins
  • Why Attend Compliance Week

Innovation in Compliance: From MVP to MVF: Governing AI Agents with Guardrails, Policy-as-Code, and Board Oversight with Aravind Parthasarathy

Innovation occurs across many areas, and compliance professionals need not only to be ready for it but also to embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode,  host Tom visits with Aravind Parthasarathy, Vice President, Client Partner for Telco & Tech at NewRocket, a ServiceNow implementation company focused on helping large enterprises adopt agentic AI.

They discuss the shift from viewing AI as a tool to treating it as an operator with humans as mentors handling exceptions, and what this means for compliance, GRC, and risk management. Aravind contrasts minimum viable product (MVP) with minimum viable function (MVF), emphasizing end-to-end autonomous business functions, probabilistic performance, and continuous learning. They cover governance needs, including guardrails, policy-as-code, auditability of agent decisions, model drift monitoring, and automated “trust but verify.” Aravind provides a telecom outage-troubleshooting example with compliance notification obligations, addresses board-level AI governance using emerging standards like ISO 42001, suggests KPIs (accuracy, autonomy), recalibrates operational metrics, and introduces “context graphs” to capture decision data over time.

Key highlights:

  • AI From Tool to Operator
  • Compliance in the MVF Era
  • Trust but Verify at Scale
  • Scaling to Multi-Agent Systems
  • Board Level AI Governance
  • Misconceptions and Practical Next Steps
